Can't Locate a Manual Download for my Intel HD Graphics First Generation

Hi, I've been having an issue lately. I originally tried using the Intel Driver Update Utility to try updating my graphics. The utility informed me that I have a custom driver and it cannot be updated without visiting my manufacturer's website. However, it did tell me I can still install a generic driver update instead but it may cause issues on my system. I'm fully aware of any consequences that may have and I plan to remedy them should the need arise, because I was recently informed of a way to manually install generic drivers without causing my custom one to be hurt. But, to the point, my graphics driver is an Intel HD Graphics driver for Intel Core Processor that's first generation. Extra information provided below:

After searching for Intel HD Graphics drivers for core processors on the manual downloads search, none of the download pages I went to actually provided a driver download for my driver. I went to this one first: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/22533/Intel-Graphics-Drivers-for-Intel-Core-Pentium-and-Celeron-Processors https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/22533/Intel-Graphics-Drivers-for-Intel-Core-Pentium-and-Celeron-Processors which told me to research for it using the download center. But researching for it brought me back to the same list of manual downloads for Intel Core Processors with Intel HD Graphics. All of the links provided only have updates for generations 2 and up. So I'm wondering, is there a page I'm missing somewhere? Or would it at least be possible for someone to link the download for it?

I ended up finding a graphics media accelerator update which happened to do the job.
